First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 4 to 4.05 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 4. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4.01
- Each space is (4.05 − 4) ÷ 5 = 0.01
- 4 + 1 × 0.01 = 4.01
2.A number line goes from 6.5 to 6.54 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 6.5. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.53
- Each space is (6.54 − 6.5) ÷ 4 = 0.01
- 6.5 + 3 × 0.01 = 6.53
3.A number line goes from 4 to 5 and is split into 3 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 4. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 4
- Each space is
- 2 spaces =
4.A number line goes from 2 to 7 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 2. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4.5
- Each space is (7 − 2) ÷ 10 = 0.5
- 2 + 5 × 0.5 = 4.5
5.A number line goes from 2 to 2.8 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 2. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 2.4
- Each space is (2.8 − 2) ÷ 4 = 0.2
- 2 + 2 × 0.2 = 2.4
6.A number line goes from 0 to 1 and is split into 3 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 0. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction.
Answer:
- Each space is
- 2 spaces =
7.A number line goes from 0 to 1 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 0.8
- Each space is (1 − 0) ÷ 5 = 0.2
- 0 + 4 × 0.2 = 0.8
8.A number line goes from 9.6 to 9.85 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 9.6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 9.7
- Each space is (9.85 − 9.6) ÷ 5 = 0.05
- 9.6 + 2 × 0.05 = 9.7
9.A number line goes from 4 to 5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 4. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 4
- Each space is
- 2 spaces =
10.A number line goes from 3.4 to 3.5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 3.4. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.46
- Each space is (3.5 − 3.4) ÷ 5 = 0.02
- 3.4 + 3 × 0.02 = 3.46
Marking tips
- Give credit for correct method even when the final answer slips — the working shows where the thinking went right.
- For open-ended tasks, use the success criteria as a checklist rather than looking for one "right" answer.
- Celebrate what went well first, then pick one thing to work on next.
Great work. Here's what to try next:
